Use a hex editor to inspect the first 100 bytes of the file. If it
doesn't start with "SQLite format 3" it's not a SQLite3 database.
Telling us what's in that first 100 bytes (in a machine-readable
unambiguous format) might be a good idea. E.g. if you have Python, do:
print repr(open('fubar.db', 'rb').read(100))
Cheers,
